What about Apple's September event

I was thinking about the event for a week.This year is different.The iPhone 5 didn't release in june/july.So i want to ask everyone.What do you think about the september event? Is it going to be like other years (first week of september?) or an other date? Last year we already knew from 24 august that the event is goona get place on September 1st.

I'm expecting the 6th or 7th. It's getting rather late for a Sept 1 show as the invites have to be sent out. Just maybe they could be sent out Monday but it's looking doubtful for that.
I would expect the rollout to be on campus as it is a smaller event now. Only the iPhone and iPad justify a Moscone Arena event.

No idea, but my gut tells me that they've got some announcements planned to follow on from (and repair some of the damage caused by) the whole "Steve is gone" announcement.

They're a smart company, I'd bet there was a whole plan (re: Steve) and they won't allow much time to pass before shifting attention back to the great products they produce. Their stock price would suffer too much if they didn't have some great announcements up their sleeves.

"The iPod lineup, which has seen sales decline for the past three years, will get a refresh that ties the portable players more into cloud-based music services, he says. Doherty also expects a new version of the iPod Touch, which he thinks will closely resemble the iPhone 5. "It will be an even better gaming machine, because games sell better on the Touch than they do on the iPhone, he says.
Apple earlier this year announced a fall debut for iCloud, a new software service for accessing and syncing data from multiple Apple devices."

Interesting that Dohery reports iPod sales have been declining for the last three years. Apple is really in a position that they have to bring out a new model every year to motivate owners to upgrade or see sales drop even more.
I'm hoping for more news tomorrow.

It is fairly common knowledge that iPod Touch sales have been on the decline. The reason for higher games sales for the iPod Touch over the iPhone probably has to do with the demographic of Touch owners being more of a game player than the typical iPhone owner.

If the event is Friday they could send out the invites tomorrow but I'm still predicting the 6th or 7th which would mean the invites would be on Friday. The last few days are always the most painful to wait out.
